Good morning everybody. Today was back and shoulder day for me wbu? I was playing nothing but Future’s classic album: DS2. SO GOOD. First I have some news and highlights before jumping into today’s main topic.
Headlines
Kylie Jenner is on the cover of Interview Magazine’s Winter 2023 issue. She was interviewed my Jennifer Lawrence (big celeb crush of mine). My fav quote? “My haters fuel me.” - KJ. Yeah same.
GQ covered Denim Tears founder Tremaine Emory, revealing details from his near-death experience last year.
The most recent episode of Scott Galloway’s podcast ‘Prof G’ was particularly inspirational. Especially the anecdote about receiving his first big check from a client and thinking he committed fraud. Go listen.
The Perfect White T-Shirt
I recently had a friend suggest I do a newsletter looking for the perfect white t-shirt. So I used my experience and some research to put together a list of amazing white tees for every price point. The last one is for ballers only so if you’re not a baller don’t even bother reading.
Uniqlo U-Crew Neck Cotton T Shirt
First up we have the classic Uniqlo white tee. These are a great entry point option and easily disposable. They do hold up well in the wash but if you’re trying to really be crispy you gotta trash these after like 3-5 wears.
Price: $20
Material: 100% cotton
Whitesville Japanese Made White T Shirt
When ‘The Bear’ season 2 dropped, we began a new era in white t-shirt culture. Jeremy Allen White came bursting into the cultural zeitgeist and nearly out of these Japanese made white tees. They are thick as hell, and shape great to your body. When I put one of these on after working out, I feel powerful. You can cop 2 for $90 at Self Edge.
Price: $90 (2-pack)
Material: 100% Long Staple Combed Cotton (Fine Weave) Fabric
Loro Piana The Gift of Kings® T-Shirt
I told you this last one was for BALLERS ONLY. This Loro Piana white tee is appropriately titled ‘The Gift of Kings’, as its woven from LP’s proprietary Gift of Kings wool, which is only 12 microns in diameter and comprised of wool from Merino sheep in New Zealand.
The pleasure of walking into any function knowing you have the most expensive white tee will only set you back $2,285. This shirt is a no brainer if you can skip paying rent for a month.
Price: $2285
Material: 100% ‘Gift of Kings’ Virgin Wool
Recap
You don’t want to be out here in a stained, loose fitting white t-shirt. We are all putting in time and effort to workout and look good, and getting the perfect white tee is crucial to presentation and comfort. Whether you’re going for the broke boy Uniqlo, the discerning Whitesville, or the Kendall Roy, boss-level Loro Piana tee: getting something that fits you is essential. See you all tomorrow.
